GOODYEAR, AZ. – The Towson University men's golf team opened its 2019 spring schedule by competing in the Loyola Invitational Saturday.
Course Information
Palms Course at the Palm Valley Golf Club in Goodyear, Arizona.
Par: 72/7,015 yards
Quotable
Towson head men's golf coach Mike Larkin on Towson's first-round effort.
"Everybody was pretty locked in, just a little rusty, which is to be expected in the first round of the season. I liked that each of the five guys was just a couple mistakes away from a really good round. Tomorrow's a building day to make those adjustments from today's round, get locked in again and go out there and execute the game plan."
